A new imaging technique is allowing researchers to pinpoint ways of modifying drugs to avoid side effects.

As members of the lab’s Computer Science Division, they develop the tools needed to handle ginormous data volumes produced by the next generation of scientific discovery machines.

About 400 people attended the annual conference and workshops for scientists who conduct experiments at SLAC’s light sources.

With SLAC’s X-ray laser, a research team captured ultrafast changes in fluorescent proteins between “dark” and “light” states. The insights allowed the scientists to design improved markers for biological imaging.

The Scripps researcher is honored for groundbreaking research at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource that accelerated the development of a vaccine for deadly Lassa fever.

A decade-long search ends at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource, where researchers from The Scripps Research Institute emerge with a clear picture of how the deadly Lassa virus enters human cells.

X-ray studies have produced surprising insights into the workings of a hormone receptor associated with blood pressure regulation that could be a target for new medicines related to cardiovascular conditions, neuropathic pain and tissue growth.

A research collaboration designed a new assembly-line system that rapidly replaces exposed samples and allows the team to study reactions in real-time.

X-rays show details of an insect virus’s crystalline cocoon with sub-nanometer resolution.

New X-ray methods have captured the highest resolution room-temperature images of photosystem II.

The team determined the 3-D structure of a biomolecule by tagging it with selenium atoms and taking hundreds of thousands of images.

During a recent shutdown, engineers installed new beamline technology and a 3-D virtual tour captured rare views of the synchrotron’s interior.
